Anyone know what a “czar” is, what a “czar” does, or if their actions are reviewable by anyone?

How about a lawsuit directed at the “czar” system?

“Bloom, a former United Steelworkers union adviser and Lazard Ltd. investment banker, helped guide General Motors Co. and Chrysler Group LLC through bankruptcy as part of the government’s rescue of the auto industry. In his new role, he will plan Obama’s agenda to “revitalize” manufacturing jobs, according to a statement from the White House Press Secretary.”

“Bloom will also keep his role with the automotive industry task force.”

He is a union hack and a commie sympathizer.

Something is wrong? Yep.

The reality is president zero has no executive experience and does not understand business, economics, history or civics.

I believe the reason he has so many advisers is to have people around him to tutor him about all the things he is ignorant about. Zero is incapable of doing these things himself so he must have help from his advisers.

Another CZAR! (I love the way this administration *plays with language* to attempt to cover up what they do.)

They must REALLY think we are stupid.
